5.Something FunA person is on trial for murder in a court room in Oklahoma.There is strong evidence indicating guilt.However,the body is not found.In the defense's(辩护)closing statement,the lawyer,knowing that his client is guilty and that it looks like he'll probably be convicted,resorted to a clever trick.

Finally the lawyer says,"Actually,I made up the previous statement.But you all waited with expectation.I,therefore,put it to you that there is a reasonable doubt in this case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that you return a verdict(裁决)of no guilty.
The jury,clearly confused,retires to discuss.
A very few minutes later,the jury returned and a representative pronouns a verdict of guilty.
